The online project, in which neighbors give each other things they no longer need, was started by two Bainbridge Island women. It's grown to 7.5 million users.

#BuyNothing group 里偶尔也有说自己需要什么,看看如果有人有就不用买了。昨天有一个女士说她丈夫看到家里的铁锅上有锈迹就把铁锅扔了,问有没有人有多的。
评论里另一位女士介绍了一下自己的丈夫,说他虽然乱扔袜子还打鼾但是个好人,你觉得OK的话我把他送过去。
在Buy Nothing 组里又送出去一条毯子、一个枕头和一个ThinkPad 电脑包,开心。

@mgrass same!
I’ll also make an effort not to buy anything (except for maybe food) and volunteer at our local parks and rec department to help with invasive flora removal.

Saw this floating around (From Matt Haig's Reasons to Stay Alive) and it reminded me of #mastodon and the #fediverse as a calm space.

!!!!! My neighbor just dropped off an ENORMOUS bag of craft supplies completely unannounced!! I loathe Facebook with the burning passion of a thousand suns but the community you can build with #BuyNothing groups are worth the ads and data mining (at least for now).
Is there #nyc #BuyNothing? Really want to give ~50 newborn diapers a good home.
Check out your local #Facebook #BuyNothing group for the rest of this week if you're looking for a persuasive argument to stop wasting your $$ on so many obligatory #Christmas #gifts for family, friends, and Secret Santas.

First day off for winter break and I've been clearing decks -- paying bills, laundry, donating food to my building's free food box. Next, I'm offering a warm sweater to my #BuyNothing group.
Then I'll plan my takeout Christmas dinner, a gift to myself. I'm happily not in the mood to cook, except maybe a cranberry tart.
Also watching this weather, waiting for the rush of cold as the rain continues.

@eatthelove Gotcha. I've saved some of my experimental glazing pieces for mosaic work, also. As for #BuyNothing ... I just picked up a nice size box of glass beads yesterday to entertain myself with over the holidays. Also gave away a ridiculously expensive dog car booster seat to another doting fur parent. That group is one of the best parts of social media, imo.
Watched my 10 year old write this 2 hours ago and then wander the house listlessly scratching his head. The days of toys seem to have ended, replaced by adolescent ennui. 😅

A surprising amount of stuff went out of my house via #BuyNothing today. Tonight I wrote a little poem:
When you give
what could be sold
you're helping folks
both young and old.

went out for a short #bicycle ride this afternoon with my partner, to pick up a piece of furniture from a neighbor in my local #BuyNothing group.
it’s been a few months since i was on a bike and i was riding our smaller cargo bike (drastically different geometry and balance than my hybrid). took awhile to get over the initial nerves and adrenaline, but i was feeling more confident on the way back - probably because i was paying more attention to the table on the back of the other bike. 😂
@hydroponictrash @tinker I feel like #BuyNothing fills this niche in my neighborhood. It’s implemented on Facebook Groups, and has basically displaced yardsales and significant amount of waste. It’s mostly about swapping stuff, but we organize meal trains and local services too.
